Four midfielders [from left to right]: Grosskreutz, Bender, Shinji Kagawa and Reuss

Two strikers: Gu Zhen and Lewandowski

Yes, there are some changes on both sides in this game!

Benfica's side clearly put themselves in the underdog position, placing themselves very low and creating a defensive 4-5-1 formation, which is why the likes of Rodrigo, Aimar and Nolito did not play, but sat on the bench and waited for their chance.

Perhaps, the Benfica people just want to stabilize first, and then exert their strength in the second half of the game to win the game.

And there are still some changes on Dortmund's side, and the old captain Kyle, who has been in good form recently, did not appear in the starting line, or even on the bench. In this game, Dortmund changed the formation, from 4-2-3-1 to 4-4-2, I don't know what Klopp is thinking in his mind?

Could it be that Dortmund is going to strengthen their attack in this game, and they want to play at home and win the game?

Anyway, both teams have ideas in this game!

At this moment, the referee of the game blew the whistle for the start of the game.

Sure enough, as soon as the game began, Dortmund pressed all over the line and frantically besieged Benfica. The Dortmund man frequently switched forward pressures, causing Benfica a lot of problems.

The Benfica man felt a lot of pressure as soon as he came up.

"We can see that Borussia Dortmund are looking to take advantage of the home advantage to win Benfica. They attacked very fiercely at the beginning of the game, and they were still in shape, and Dortmund had a good chance of winning this game! "Duan Xuan is optimistic about Dortmund.

In the third minute of the first half, Borussia Dortmund threatened Benfica's goal.

Shinji Kagawa in the midfield seems to be going straight to the back of Benfica's two central defenders. Gu Zhen rushed forward, got rid of the two central defenders directly, and hit their penalty area, which scared the Benfica players.

Louis exclaimed in his heart: "Lie down, is this the speed of Mr. Golden Ball?" So fast? So perverted? ”

When he saw this, Luis knew they were going to face a tough test in this game.

However, this time, Shinji Kagawa did not directly plug behind him, but directly made a long diagonal pass, turning the football to the side. Royce, who cut forward on the wing, jumped up and stretched out his leg to unload the ball, and then went straight to the cross.

The football roared into the Benfica penalty area, and the Benfica fans were shocked.

Because their defenders in the box are not in place at this time, very

Danger!

With a bang, Lewandowski, who was inserted diagonally, jumped up directly to hit the goal with a header, and the football roared out, and was directly held out of the bottom line by Artur's single palm.

Gu Zhen is Gu Zhen, keep Gu Zhen!

This ball was saved very beautifully, because the angle of the ball was very tricky, and it was about to be scored, but this guy actually pounced on the football, very sharp!

Gu Zhen also gave a thumbs up to Artur, Artur was instantly stunned, what does this mean? Is this a compliment or sarcasm?

Artur didn't dwell on it, after all, defense is the most important thing now.

Artur stood up directly and shouted at his teammates in the penalty area: "Pay attention to defense, follow your own people, don't be attacked by them, steady and steady!" ”

Yes, the Benfica players were a little unstable at the start of the game. And in the face of such a ferocious impact from Dortmund as soon as they came up, they were indeed a little flustered.

Benfica's defenders all took a deep breath, returned to the penalty area, stood in their defensive positions, and defended seriously!

It was a difficult match!

Louisson stood directly beside Gu Zhen and guarded against Gu Zhen. At this time, Garay came over and said directly: "You go and see Lewandowski behind you, that guy is also very powerful, and he can't let anyone go!" ”

Louisson bowed slightly, indicating that he understood.

On this side, Louisson turned directly to Lewandowski, not giving the Poles any chance.

The Benfica people's defense is really very tight, Gu Zhen is being carried by the guy Garay, and there are other defenders on his back, it is difficult to move.

These defenses are really tight, and there is not much chance!

Gu Zhen immediately raised his hand to signal that the referee had been violated, but unfortunately the referee ignored it at all and directly blew the whistle to serve.

Grosskreutz in the corner kick area glanced at the penalty area and found that Gu Zhen's chances were not good, so he directly sent the football to the back of the penalty area with an arc.

Borussia Dortmund's centre-back Hummels circled the box straight into the box, swung his head and the defender rushed to the back of the box, jumped high and smashed the ball hard.

With a bang, the ball whistled and flew towards Benfica's goal.

With a bang, the football was pushed out of the bottom line by Pereira in front of the goal, and Benfica once again tried to keep the goal intact.

"Beautiful! What a beautiful defense! We can see that Benfica are well prepared and these defenses are very good. Although the Dortmund people have the opportunity to score, it is really good! Karn said.

Yes, Benfica's defense is really a bit of a taste, at least so far Gu Zhen hasn't gotten any decent opportunities!

Benfica's fans are all booing Gu Zhen and hitting Gu Zhen's confidence.

It's best that Gu Zhen's confidence was knocked out by them in this game, and that's good. It's a lot easier for Benfica to win this game, and that's what they want to see.

"So far, the Benfica people have been decent, the fence is tight. Now it's up to them how long they can keep it in place? Can you withstand it? Duan Xuan said.

"Of course, at this time, Gu Zhen is also going to refuel, and now he has no performance!" Xu Yang said the same.

There are many people at the scene who came to see Gu Zhen, if Gu Zhen didn't show anything, it wouldn't be too much!

Corner, Dortmund continue the corner!

Grosskreutz sent the ball straight into Benfica with a straight curling shot

of the forbidden area. Gu Zhen in the penalty area directly switched positions with Hummels and Subotic, which finally got rid of the defender Luisson, he jumped high and shook his head to attack the goal!

"What a chance! An opportunity for Gu Zhen! Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV's sports channel, screamed excitedly, and his voice was loud!

The Dortmund fans at the scene were also very excited and excited, jumping and pulling up directly.

Gu Zhen jumped high, saw the incoming ball, and directly shook his head and smashed it into the football. However, at this moment, a pair of hands reached out and plucked the football directly from his head!

"Oops! Artur attacked, he plucked the football from Gu Zhen's head, and Dortmund returned in vain. It's a pity, if Gu Zhen had topped this goal, he would have scored 100% of the goals. It's a pity that Gu Zhen didn't reach the ...... Oh no, the Benfica people fought back, dangerous! Duan Xuan suddenly exclaimed.

The fans at the scene and in front of the TV were scared and dangerous.

Artur, who was holding the football, rushed out directly, looking at Gaitan, who quickly turned and stepped forward, he threw the football across the half court with a strong hand, and flew directly to Gaitan, who was inserted forward on the side.

Counterattack, Benfica's counterattack is coming!

Borussia Dortmund's full-back, Schmelzer, rushed out the moment the ball flew out, frantically rushing towards Gaitan, who was about to receive the ball. He is ready to take the first step to destroy the football, and even if he can't destroy it, he will block Gaitan's forward route so that the opponent can't counterattack. Even if you can't destroy it, you must have the opportunity to foul, and you must not let the opposite go to the meeting alone!

Schmelzer's speed was very fast, and when he saw the flying football, he fell directly to the ground and slid the sliding tackle, and shoveled at the flying football fiercely, and he was confident that he would destroy the football first.

Who knows that he has a low point in Gaitan's speed and reflexes, as well as guts!

Seeing Schmelzer shoveling like a bulldozer, Gaitan was not timid at all, but rushed forward quickly, stretched out his legs and stabbed the football out a little bit, and the football rushed past Schmelzer's legs. Then Geita jumped to his feet and moved up from the body of Schmelzer, who had come from the sliding shovel.

Many fans at the scene closed their eyes and didn't dare to look at it, because this time it was really too fierce, and they were afraid of a very bloody scene.

But Gaitan was not afraid at all, and jumped up and passed Schmelzer.

Gaitan stumbled a little after landing, but he quickly stabilized his body and rushed towards the football. Catching up with the football, he directly used his speed to shake off Piszczek, who was chasing back, and rushed quickly to the Dortmund penalty area.

The Dortmund fans were instantly nervous, and one by one they roared worriedly.

And Klopp on the sidelines was also surprised, what's wrong? How did it become like this all of a sudden? He roared loudly, reminding Dortmund goalkeeper Weidenfeller.

Yes, the only one who can stop Gaitan is Weidenfeller now!

Weidenfeller rushed out and pounced fiercely at Gaitan, who was coming with the ball at high speed. Gaitan saw the moment and fired a volley straight into the run, and the ball quickly rolled under the armpit of Weidenfeller and into the Dortmund goal.

The ball went in and Gaitan broke the deadlock of the game!

The entire Idona Park stadium fell into a brief silence, and the Dortmund fans did not react, so did they concede the goal?

Gaitan, who scored the goal, was very excited, turned around directly, and rushed to the sideline frantically, and came to a passionate slide. Then he stood up and excitedly waved his fist at the Benfica fans who came from afar, perfectly showing how excited he was now!
